Ye Feng searched for a lot of information online, but most of it came from online articles.
Online novels are just wild ideas, made up by authors. Using online novels as source material is truly unbelievable.
"To create magic, one must first Perception the Magic Element in the air; and to Perception the Magic Element in the air, one must first improve Divine Power."
"But what exactly is Divine Power?" Ye Feng was completely baffled.
However, Ye Feng also discovered one benefit after the appearance of the cheat system.
Although his cheat ability hasn't been activated yet, it has given him an exceptionally powerful brain, with his memory, comprehension, and creativity all maxed out.
This completely dispelled Ye Feng's last remaining doubts, who had previously suspected the true nature of the cheat system.
If the "golden finger" (a cheat system in Chinese fantasy novels) is real, then magic must also exist.
Now, what he needs is direction.
Ye Feng spent the entire morning cooped up in his room, completely lacking any ideas, which left him quite discouraged.
So he had no choice but to go to Ling Yi, since Ling Yi was a comic artist and had a much wilder imagination.
Besides, two heads are better than one.
"You ask me what Divine Power is? Which explanation do you want to hear?"
Upon hearing Ye Feng's question, Ling Yi countered with his own.
"Are there other interpretations?"
The fantastical explanation is that Divine Power is a kind of energy Fusion the soul and will. The scientific explanation is that Divine Power is an external manifestation of brainwaves or brain Magnetic Field.
"Don't bother studying the soul; it's hopeless and impossible to work with. But perhaps you could try working on brainwaves."
Ye Feng nodded. How can you study the soul and will? There's simply no way to study them.
"If brainwaves can be enhanced, is that equivalent to enhancing Divine Power?"
Ling Yi nodded. "What you're saying makes sense."
Ye Feng muttered to himself as he returned to his room and began searching online for information about brainwaves.
In the afternoon, Ye Feng left the apartment, but when he returned in the evening, he brought back a stack of books.
They are all books about brainwaves.
During dinner that evening, Ye Feng asked Ling Yi somewhat awkwardly, " Ling Yi, um, are you short of money?"
"How much do you want to borrow?" Ling Yi asked.
"Didn't I buy a bunch of books this afternoon? If I want to study brainwaves, I first need to understand the workings of bioelectricity in the brain!"
"To enhance brain bioelectricity, you need to understand the frequency and intensity of bioelectricity, and also understand what each bioelectric signal represents..." Ye Feng rattled off a long explanation.
"So what?"
"Therefore, I need to buy a lot of books."
"You taught yourself? Is that reliable?"
"Hehe, I Photographic Memory."
Ling Yi sat up straight and said seriously, "You're lying to me. We've known each other for a long time. You are indeed a bit smarter than most people, but I don't believe you have Photographic Memory."
"Besides, you're already obsessed. How could magic possibly exist? If anyone found out, they'd send you to a mental hospital in a heartbeat."
"But... magic really exists!" Ye Feng said with certainty.
How did you know?
Ye Feng hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "If I told you that I obtained a system, the kind of system in novels, would you believe me?"
Do you think I believe you or not?
"I bet you don't believe me!" Ye Feng was very frustrated. Even if someone told him this, he wouldn't believe it.
"But I really did get a system, the ' Strongest Magician ' system. My Photographic Memory is a gift from this system. However, to truly activate the system, I must create my own spell."
"Real?"
"Of course it's true. When have you ever seen me lie?" Ye Feng said anxiously.
Then, as if remembering something, he rushed back to his room, grabbed a very thick book, placed it on the dining table, and said, "This is the book I just bought this afternoon. I can recite it from beginning to end now."
As he spoke, he began reciting without a care in the world, leaving Ling Yi feeling utterly overwhelmed.
A few minutes later, Ling Yi waved his hand to interrupt, saying, "That's enough!"
Then, Ling Yi tossed him a bank card and said, "The password is my birthday."
"Hehe, thanks. Don't worry, once I learn magic, I'll definitely teach you first."
"No interest. What's the point of magic? I could just cast Daoist Arts and this world would be gone, believe it or not."
"Tch!" Ye Feng naturally didn't believe it.
Over the next few days, Ye Feng completely went into a frenzy.
He spent a week reading over a hundred scientific masterpieces and bought a lot of scientific instruments and various rare materials.
In just a few days, Ling Yi lost nearly a million.
Most people would have turned hostile long ago, but for Ling Yi, making money was far too easy; it was just a matter of a thought.
But Ye Feng's side also began to see results.
He first cobbled together a brain signal reader, which was shaped somewhat like a helmet, with a bunch of wires and various chips on it. After that, he wore this thing every day, whether he was eating, drinking, or sleeping.
"This device can read and record the bioelectrical intensity of different areas of the brain, and analyze the effect of each signal frequency."
"Mmm!" Ling Yi nodded in response while eating.
"Since it can read, it can naturally write. Our brains read information using bioelectrical signals. If we could strengthen or rewrite the bioelectrical signals in the brain, with the assistance of a chip, do you know what that would mean?"
Ye Feng gestured excitedly as he said, "This means that even ordinary people can instantly learn all the knowledge, and ordinary people can become top scientists in a short period of time."
"I want to develop this and then sell it."
Ling Yi asked in surprise, "Sell it for money?"
"Yes, I've found my research to be very expensive; I can't keep using yours all the time."
"The idea is good, but do you know how much of an impact this thing would have on the world if it were released?"
"Forehead?"
"What If...? someone learns the relevant knowledge from this and just makes a game like this at home?"
"Ha?"
"Therefore, you have to control what knowledge you want to learn, or you can simply set a price."
How can the prices be clearly marked?
"For example, teaching someone a foreign language in seven days for three thousand isn't expensive, is it?"
"This isn't expensive?" Ye Feng exclaimed in surprise.
"This is expensive? A random foreign language tutoring class costs several thousand yuan, and it doesn't even guarantee you'll learn anything, plus it takes months. Believe me, this price is already very cheap, and I guarantee countless people will scramble to get it."
"That makes sense!"
"Forget it, I'll handle the company selling educational helmets. You just need to work on a sample first."
"Alright, I don't understand it anyway, and..." Ye Feng pointed to the helmet on his head and said, "This thing will take some time to record all the data."
"Knew!"
Ling Yi really wanted to ask, what does this have to do with magic?
Have we gone off-topic?
For the next period of time, Ye Feng stayed home to conduct research.
Ling Yi, on the other hand, didn't go out all day either. He was also tinkering with things. Since he was Bored anyway, he created a scientific version of magic.
It's quite convenient to unleash a Lightning or throw a Fireball.
However, the power of this thing depends on the amount of Magic Factor, and the Magic Factor need to be "recharged".
Ling Yi didn't dare to create too many, because when the amount of Magic Factor reached a certain level, each time energy was absorbed, it would have a huge impact on the global weather.
When a planet's thermal and light energy is extensively Plunder, it will naturally affect the planet's climate.
If Magic Factor truly covered the entire globe, a single energy restoration could turn this planet into an ice block.
Having gotten bored with the Magic Factor, Ling Yi started thinking about whether there were other ways to create magic in a world without magic.
Bored, Ling Yi searched online for some imaginative ideas, but most of them were just nonsense. Unless he used the laws of nature to change the rules of this world, they were basically impossible to realize.
On the other hand, Ye Feng's side has made new progress.
"There are 390 million frequencies of bioelectric signals, most of which are used to receive, process, and store information from the outside world, and to issue hardware commands."
"I divided the bioelectric signal into two parts: a hardware command and a Magnetic Field command."
As Ye Feng spoke, he chewed on chocolate, his face pale and his eyes bloodshot. The Gao Qiang mental exertion had made him look completely abnormal.
"Hardware commands refer to the set of bioelectrical signals that control our bodies. Our thoughts, our memories, everything we Perception through our five senses—all the commands issued to every tissue in our bodies are carried out by these hardware commands."
"I think you'd better get some sleep," Ling Yi suggested.
"You don't know, but the biggest discovery this time is the Magnetic Field command. Electricity can generate Magnetic Field, and so can bioelectricity. In fact, our brains can receive Magnetic Field, but the ability of ordinary people to receive Magnetic Field has degenerated."
Damn it, he's completely gone mad. Ling Yi was worried that this guy would die at any moment.
"I think that perhaps by amplifying the release and reception of this Magnetic Field, we can amplify our sixth sense, or even the Legend ninth sense. Perhaps this is the essence of the Divine Power I have been searching for."
"But the human brain cannot perform these tasks actively. I need to create a chip that can Simulation bioelectrical signals to charge the brain and enhance its bioelectrical strength. I..."
Ling Yi snapped his the Snap, and Ye Feng instantly slumped down, collapsing onto the sofa.
"I think you'd better get some sleep," Ling Yi murmured, then snapped her the Snap and sent him back to his own bed.
Even with his extraordinary brain, Ye Feng couldn't withstand such reckless torment.
This is the most bizarre Protagonist Ling Yi has ever seen. Hopefully, this guy won't break down after learning the truth about his cheat ability.
